Leak claims the Apple AirPods 2 will be able to wirelessly charge from zero to full in just 15 minutes

Apple is expected to unveil the AirPods 2 at its March iPad event. The updated version of the wireless earphones are rumored to have improved sound quality, water resistance, a grippier rubber coating, always-on Siri, and a new black color option.

The AirPods 2 are also expected to have wireless charging in the case, similar to Samsung's new Galaxy Buds. A new leak from XDA's Max Weinbach further reveals that the AirPods 2 will have fast wireless charging case through the Qi standard that will be able to charge both the case and the AirPods themselves from 0 to 100% in just 15 minutes. However, Weinbach also says that the case will be bigger and heavier.

So the Apple news. AirPods wireless charging will happen. It will be VERY fast (0-100 in 15 minutes.) That speed is for the AirPods AND the case. It will probably use Qi charging.

There will be a downside though, the case will be bigger in one direction and heavier.
